Rage Poem by Anushka KISHOR

Rage

Rating: 5.0


Rage may be universal,
Insanity, certainly not,
Some channelise their fury, to achieve a greater cause,
Some see it as a plot.
Committing sin, in the name of uncontrollable wrath,
Is what they consider as their prerogative,
Disregarding the fact,
That the repercussions, shall only be destructive.
Of the seven deadly sins, one has already been perpetrated,
Greed isn't acknowledged, being in disguise, it's often neglected.
Little does the world know,
That satisfaction of greed, is their primary concern,
They can go to any extent for that,
Be it inflicting pain on someone, or letting the world burn.
Manipulation comes unannounced,
Wearing a veil of progressive thoughts,
And manages to woo everyone with its glory.
As it's been said and proven,
''Thou may try, but can never fully abandon thy fury'.
-Anushka,

Stupid politicians usually set me off spouting off on telly or radio.

Thank you for commenting, it is really encouraging for aspiring writers like me, and I agree with your point, although the actual context was different, but I tried to keep it as universal for everyone to interpret in their own ways.
